the generally unplug the switch on the stalk. there is a small cutout at the back of the indicator stalk, remove and plug it back in.

if you have an aero model with the driving lights in the front bar, the 'I/II' switch next to the headlight height adjustment toggles between the bumper lights and the ones in the headlight unit.

Thanks for that. The car hasn't been complied yet but I'll check that switch tomorrow. I did find today that the drivers side fog light wasn't plugged in. I also had a problem with none of the lhs indicators working at all. After a few hours checking everything I found that someone in Japan had cut a wire behind the drivers kick panel, I joined it back up and now all indicators are working. Very weird as to why they cut it.

ok so im picking up my RX Four (stock standard) yucky.gif from Edward Lee's in sydney with in the next week, after owning a W34 and loving it just curious to find out

1. Whats the best wheel combo to get (size and width)

2. is there a AUX 12V socket in the rear like on the W34?

will post up a some pic's when i pick her up from compliancing and registration

please please PLEASE have the car throughly checked by an INDEPENDANT inspection place. a mechanic, hell anyone that knows anything about those cars.

if possible, dont buy it from there

anyway, 18 as a minimum i would get in wheel size

no there is no 12v output in the boot, unless the dealer (in japan) has fitted one

I'm willing to bet that you have, or had, the mirror covers with the LED indicators.

When I picked mine up from having the alarm replaced, the indicators weren't working on the LHS except the LED ones, which flashed quickly. Found the problem was a wire behind the drivers kick panel had been cut by the scotch lock they used to connect the LEDs in the mirrors to the indicator lines.

Soldered up, all good! :thumbsup:

had a mate who is a mechanic go over it with a fine tooth comb he has worked with quite a few m35's in the past another mate of mine works at a body shop and can pick resprays really well, this one came through very well amazingly. very straight and mechanically no issues, was f.o.b when i spotted it while searching around the area. (arrived 30th june) still had quarantine stickers on her

what width wheel is recommended? looking at 9-10 inches

9.5 max...I don't know anyone running 10's on our cars...

Ideal sizes are 9+30 or 9.5+35 And I think it was 8.5+22 in the diameter your happy with. I found that the 9.5+30 only leaves about 3mm between rim and suspension link arm. I chose 9+30 as it sits the same in relation to the guard lip but has more room inside to the suspension arms.

if you wanted something abit "drift Spec"

you could probably go 9+25? should stick out about 5 mm, with some stretched tires and rolled guards. would look awesome! ive got 8+22 and i have about half an inch- 1 inch clearance to the guard which means i could space em out abit.

9+25 would look gooooood

you'd think so lol, but the plastic covers are just clipped into the stock fenders you have. so i cant run anymore offset than you.

although when i rolled my guards i did hack up the covers. and it came up great/

    • Congrats on the career change!  I did something similar at the start of the year too, left IT / corporate after nearly 2 decades. Soooo when's the motor coming out for the spark plug change?
    • Hi guys, long time no post as per usual! It's been a busy year so far, the biggest thing being a new job.  After 28 years in the automotive industry I decided it was time for a change.  I was losing faith in the industry and where it's heading.  Now in a completely different industry (electrical) working for a company that manufacture water pump contollers.  Not as sexy as cars but it's an interesting,  challenging industry. I now don't work Saturdays which is a bonus!  It's still 50-55 hours a week but having Saturdays ack after 28 years of working them is awesome!   No news on the GT-R but i did decide to add some more JDM goodness into my life....           1990 300 ZX.  She's not perfect but for a 35 year old car she ain't bad!  Just going to tidy it up a bit and enjoy it.  It's currently auto but will start stockpiling everything for a manual swap. It WILL distract me even further from the GT-R but im hoping not for too long! It somewhat proves a 6'8" freak can fit in a 300 ZX.  Sort of...  I drove it home from the previous owners house in Melbourne via Black Spur and Merton Gap (2 awesome bits of Victorian twisty road) and it was amazing!  Handles so well!!!   I don't think it would be worthy of a full build page but I'll post up some of the upgrades here if anyone is interested?  Cheers guys!
    • End game is to: - Remove all the slop from old worn parts - Adjust setup so that the wheels actually fit and the car is drivable (currently it is not because of the extreme rubbing on the guards).   Progress over the last couple of days, removed the rear hubs! Next steps: - Buy bushings - Replace bushings/bearings on hub - Reinstall
